<div>these messages mean that you do not have a QuickTime compatible
video capture device attached to your machine and configured
correctly. the code we use should work with any such device,
however due to the massive number of these device out there, there's
no way for the two of us to test even a small percentage of them.
if you device works wit another QT app like the QT Broadcaster and not
with GEM let us know and we can try and do something about it.</div>

<div>you do not have hardware GL acceleration. there is a check
for hardware acceleration and if it is not found the check fails and
no window is created. you either need to install the correct
drivers for you machine and video chipset or use another machine with
working hardware GL.</div>

</blockquote>
<div><br></div>
<div>there are a couple of problems with your setup:</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>- the wallstreet does not have hardware openGL support so GEM
will not run</div>
<div>- that machine is about the minimum required to run the OS so
real-time video and graphics are a stretch</div>
<div>- you got the g4 version of GEM which will crash on a g3</div>

<blockquote type="cite" cite><font face="Lucida Grande" size="+1">now
the question: where do i find the pd application files on the machine

,,,</font></blockquote>

</blockquote>
<div><br></div>
<div>the problem with that installer is that it puts pd in a location
hidden to the Finder. the install location is a very correct
'Unix' way to install things but not very 'Mac friendly'.</div>
